Sebastian Vettel addressed the fans

Sebastian Vettel is no longer in Formula 1 this year, but he is in touch with the motorsport world and today he would be driving around the Goodwood circuit in cars from his personal collection – this is Nigel Mansell’s championship Williams FW14B and Ayrton Senna’s McLaren MP4/8 , car 1993 of the year.

In addition, these cars now run on modern synthetic fuels, which Vettel calls CO2 neutral, hence the Race Without Trace slogan on the rear wing of his historic McLaren car. meaning you can race without leaving a carbon footprint in the environment.

But weather hampered the Festival of Speed ​​organizers’ plans, and for the first time in 30 years, the Saturday program we talked about had to be cancelled. Sebastian decided to address the fans personally and assured that everything would go according to plan on Sunday.

Sebastian Vettel: Hello everyone from Goodwood! Of course I am very sorry that we could not continue the festival program today, but tomorrow is the holiday, then we will see each other again. It’s going to be really cool because I’ll be driving around the track in two of my very special cars.

I’m grateful to everyone who came to the Festival of Speed, and while I’m afraid we won’t be able to carry out our plan today, we’ll get it done tomorrow. I think the whole racing community is concerned about this, but we have to treat the situation with understanding. Still, this is a large-scale event, a lot of people gather for it, and if the forecast promises a strong gust of wind, then you should not risk it. I think it’s better to just do that.

Speaking of our Race Without Trace event, tomorrow I will be driving these two great cars around the track and it is very important for me to show that they can be raced on carbon neutral synthetic fuels. Tomorrow you will see and hear all this, because the engines of these cars still sound great. See you soon!”
